 The second disc from this Irish band (and AC/DC opener) is so classic–rock that CD copies should come with a disco sucks sticker. Backed by meaty, riff–heavy propulsion, singer Cormac Neeson comes off as a tough guy and a Robert Plant devotee: He's a gunslinging desperado on "Demon Eyes," a fierce blues rocker that, like most of the album,has a huge, fist–pumping chorus. Unfortunately, the sound isn't very distinct, and the tunes don't usually stick. Everyday Demons will satisfy metal fans who are in between favorite albums, but if your tastes don't run along the lines of The Simpsons' Otto the bus driver, you can take a pass....full text |

| There’s a good reason why The Answer was chosen to open for hard rock veterans, AC/DC. Why? Because they kick ass. They may not have a new or even a modern sound to them but they know how to rock. The first time I heard the answer was on their Never Too Late EP. When I slipped it in and pressed play, my initial reaction was; “Great, another AC/DC clone band.”, but they were far from it. I had only heard a few seconds before making that statement to myself, but as I continued to listen it just had a certain vibe to it that screamed classic rock with a modern twist and I was hooked. Imagine The Black Crowes jamming with Led Zeppelin. The Answer draw influence from Free, Led Zeppelin, The Black Crowes and Cream, yet keep it original enough to truly enjoy them without constantly comparing them to their influences. All I can say is FINALLY, finally a band that says who their influences are and you can actually hear the influence. How many times these days do you hear a band say their influences are so-and-so and they don’t even sound anything like their influence....full text |

| As this is being written, The Answer are receiving acclaim for opening AC/DC’s “Black Ice” tour. The Irish band is seemingly preparing an invasion of America with their debut ‘Everyday Demons’ available on March 31, 2009. Specializing in riff heavy rock, The Answer’s debut rekindles the fire in heavy metal and could possibly eliminate the need for any more Nickelback albums to be released. The Answer finds their inspiration in the classic sound of heavy metal from groups ranging from Free to Thin Lizzy. Their sound is blues based with a heavy dose of pop music thrown in which made them such a stellar match for AC/DC crowds. The record opens with “Demon Eyes” which builds from a simple riff into something that sounds suspiciously Zepplinesque. Cormac Neeson’s vocals call to mind a combination of Paul Rodgers and Robert Plant throughout the album. “Demon Eyes” leads nicely into “Too Far Gone,” a rocker that calls to mind Thin Lizzy. Phil Lynott would be proud. The production on the album is thick with the air of 70’s rock as “Cry Out” wouldn’t be out of place on a KISS album....full text |
